SINGAPORE – In the lead-up to the B Division boys’ discus final at the Home Of Athletics on April 3, Raffles Institution’s Anson Loh was widely expected to beat the meet record after coming within 3cm of surpassing the mark in 2023. 

But instead of rewriting the record, the 16-year-old settled for second place with a 47.69m throw, while the gold medal went to Hwa Chong Institution’s Lee Yu Foong (48.04m).
